Hi,
I have gone through your query and I really appreciate your concern about the problem you are facing. As a physician I would like to tell you that you should follow your doctors instructions as told. Because your hernia needs to be evaluated by a specialist to take decision about treatment and management plan.
Meanwhile I would like to tell you that you should go to a ER or your attending physicians, if the symptoms aggravates.
Hope this will help you. Feel free to ask any further question.
